I am so out of my depth on this one, but I would welcome some help. I have the following network and did get it to work with m0n0wall (a BSD firewall) an option called "transparent bridge". I've switched to Clark Connect because of its support for content filtering, and installed bridge-utils. I have a home network based a single WAN-facing NIC, eth0, that gets a public IP address

Hi, I am a beginner of bridge. I have a problem of using Fedora Core 2 to make a simple bridge. Here is my setup: The bridge computer is installed with Fedore Core 2 (with the SE Linux patch). As I know that kernel 2.6.5 is already support bridging by default, so I didn't recompile the kernel. Then I installed bridge-utils-0.9.6-1.i386. And no additional configuration is made. After

I'm trying to bridge a wired network and a wireless network, but I'm having some trouble. No traffic seems to be passing through the bridge. When I issue a "showmacs" command to brctl, I am able to see MAC addresses from both networks. I am also able to ping both networks from the bridge machine. When I issue a "showstp" command to brctl, the wireless access

Santiago, I appreciate your offer. I'm not really a kernel hacker, however I do know C and I would be willing to try if you point me in the right direction.

Hi wondering if anyone can help. I have two NICs on a debian sarge based system and current running as a bridge (br0) which consists of eth0 and eth1. Is it possible to add a virtual interface to the eth1 so I can also do NAT on the box as well? I have tried many times and keep coming up with errors. Kind Regards William Bohannan

I've been playing around with qemu and wanted to make the guest OS instance visible on my network. This meant getting bridging and tun/tap working. After getting things working by pasting command from the CentOS wiki article plus adding a few enhancements, I decided to capture the process in a shell script that would be suitable for a user in the sudoers file to fire off. Not sure why

Hello, I have been using the bridging facilities provided by Linux (vanilla 2.6.7 SMP with UML skas host patch applied) to bridge a regular physical ethernet network (on interface eth0) with a virtual network (on interface tap0, cf uml_switch, http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/networking.html). A couple of virtual machines (run using user-mode linux, a tool that enables you to run linux
